Chase course a cause for concern at Cork

THE hoped for return to racing on turf at Cork tomorrow is subject to a 3pm inspection this afternoon.

Manager, Michael O’Neill, reported last evening that the hurdles track was almost raceable, but the chase course was thawing more slowly and a cause for concern.

There are two chases on the card, both graded events, and they have been moved to the back of the programme. Should the chase track prove to be unraceable then Cork will house six contests, the maiden hurdle having been divided.
